• La respuesta es que todos creemos nuestros propios sistemas, nuestras propias ideas, porque las ideas vibrantes e independientes triunfarán sobre este Borg corporativo y plástico, sobre este lavado de cerebro que intentan imponer. Quiero decir, prohibir 'padre' y 'madre', prohibir las palabras 'marido' y 'mujer', es tan sectario que si me hubieran dicho hace diez años que iban a prohibir palabras como esas, no lo habría creído. Lo hacen con cara seria. Quiero decir, ¿la izquierda, y por supuesto la derecha controlada también, se han vuelto colectivamente locos en una inclinación de control-friki? ¿O hay una estrategia?

• The way I look at the top five, (Rod) Laver, (Roger) Federer, myself, Borg and (Ivan) Lendl. I think those five guys dominated their generations better than anyone. Maybe Roger will dominate better than any one of the other four. Maybe I put Andre (Agassi) as kind of six through 10 with, you know, (John) McEnroe and (Jimmy) Connors, kind of those guys. That's kind of how I see it.

No había besos ni abrazos.
